The AGC MA has partnered with New England area construction managers to create the CARE Construction Safety Program. CARE stands for Consciousness, Alignment, Respect, Empowerment. The overarching intent of this program is to actively improve the experience of the tradespeople on our sites by aligning our goals and resources.

One of the first (and biggest) undertakings by this group was the creation of a universal orientation. This orientation is a once-per-year orientation that’s accepted by all participating members. It’s a high-quality, interactive orientation for all trades. As of today, the universal orientation is LIVE and being rolled out by participating CMs, including Shawmut, Lee Kennedy, Dimeo, WT Rich, Erland, and more!
To gain a better understanding of the ‘inner workings’ behind the orientation, join us for a one-hour presentation that will (hopefully) answer any questions you may have.
Speakers will be Jason Edic, Vice President, Risk Management of Lee Kennedy Company, and Chris Ziegler, Director of Safety for the AGC Of MA.
As always, the roundtable is FREE, but please register in advance.
Thank you to AGC MA for hosting us and for providing lunch!
Please pass this along to anyone in your company that can benefit
from this informative session. We hope to see you!
